District to explore uses for Lake Ramona By KAREN BRAINARD Nearly 24 years after the dedication of Lake Ramona, the Ramona Municipal Water District will explore possible uses for the body of water that Director Everett “Red” Hager called a “white elephant.” Paul Owens, a Ramona pastor, asked the water board at its Dec. 27 meeting to consider al-

However, he said, “The lake is difficult to fish from the shore.” Owens said he has fallen in the lake three times because the shoreline drops off. Liability for the water district is the main issue, according to district staff members who prepared the agenda memo recommending the board continue to not allow float tubes.

County explains ‘red tape’ to board

Financial Aid 101 offers answers

By KAREN BRAINARD

By PIXIE SULSER

“The county is engaged to reduce red tape,” Dixie Switzer from the Department of Planning and Land Use told Ramona Design Review Board members at their December meeting. Switzer gave a presentation on the county’s new site plan review process, and handed out drafts of the Design Review Compliance Checklist. Because of the sometimes lengthy and costly process that some applicants have to go through for a site plan, Switzer said the county tried to come up with an alternative between a waiver and a full site plan review. “It’s going to be a beneﬁt to the community because you’ll have a better idea of what the end process will be,” she said. The desire was to come

Ramona High School seniors and parents interested in college financial aid and scholarship information have an opportunity to learn the ins and outs of the application process at the RHS Financial Aid Night. Financial Aid 101 will be in the school’s Performing Arts Wing, 1401 Hanson Lane, starting at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 11. “Then we have breakout sessions planned tailored to answer specific questions,” said Toccara Beest, RHS counselor. “The night is for everyone, no matter where they plan to attend college.” Breakout sessions are scheduled to end at 8 p.m. Jan. 1 was the first day college bound students and their parents could

lowing float tubes for fishing at Lake Ramona. Currently boating, rafting, swimming, wading and float tubes are not allowed at the lake. Shoreline fishing is allowed in designated areas and a State of California fishing license is required. Owens told the board he enjoys fishing at Lake Ramona, where he catches bass, his largest weighing 3 pounds.

VFW ELVES— Ramona Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3783, with its Men’s and Ladies auxiliaries, delivered toys, food and clothes to the Active Duty Military Housing in Ramona. The post adopted 14 families this year with a total of 30 children. While Santa and his elves visited the adopted families to hand out their gifts, other post members spread out additional donated toys to be distributed to the children in other families. The Ramona Community Brass Band played Christmas carols in the parking lot while the children and their families selected toys. Sleigh driver Bill Bryant and his wife, Judy, added to the festivities by filling their motorized sleigh with VFW members for the event. Red-nosed Rudolph and friends “pull” the sleigh from the VFW post to the military housing.

District employees receive 1 percent raise Ramona Municipal Water District employees have received a 1 percent cost of living adjustment (COLA), effective Jan. 1. RMWD directors last week approved a 1 percent COLA increase for General Manager David Barnum, effective Jan. 1. The increase would add $1,654 to his annual salary of $165,444. Barnum told the Sentinel that RMWD

employees will also receive a 1 percent COLA increase, based on inflation, as part of their negotiated employment agreement. Barnum said that, if there had been zero inflation or deflation, employees would not have received an increase. The 1 percent, he said, will offset the 1 percent that employees now pay into their pension plan.

Barnett choir featured on TV, at community events Members of the Barnett Elementary School Choir were busy before the holiday break. They traveled to the KUSI-TV studios in Clairemont Mesa to tape for their holiday broadcast, “Songs of the Holiday Season.” The 24-voice choir was among 24 kindergarten through grade 12 schools in the San Diego viewing area that was chosen for this honor. While in the studio, the group taped three songs: “O Christmas, Christmas,” “The Holly and the Ivy” (with a six-piece accompaniment, all played by students) and “Joy to the World.” The Elementary Choir is under the direction of Ramona Unified School District Music Specialist Donna Ransdell. The program aired on KUSI-TV (Channel 9/51) on Christmas Eve and twice on Christmas Day. The choir also sang at the Ramona Oaks Park Estates Community Tree Lighting on Sunday Dec.

Man airlifted from Cedar Creek area By KAREN BRAINARD A man was airlifted from the Cedar Creek Falls area after he complained of chest pain and shortness of breath last Thursday afternoon, said Capt. Robert Ramirez of Ramona Fire Station 81. San Diego County Sheriff’s Department ASTREA unit was called to airlift the victim to the Cedar Creek trailhead parking lot on Thornbush Road in San Diego Country Estates where Cal Fire/Ramona fire department paramedics were stationed, said Deputy Jay Pavlenko a crew member on the ASTREA helicopter. Paramedics transferred the man to a Mercy Air helicopter, which landed on the San Vicente Golf Course across from station 81 and flew the victim to UCSD Medical Center. Ramirez said the man was in his 50s and had a previous heart condition. According to Pavlenko, the man complained of getting over-heated. “He seemed alert. He was able to walk to the helicopter,” Pavlenko said. The man was with three other men who were carrying rifles and appeared to be hunting, said the deputy. Hunting of wild pigs is allowed in areas of the Cleveland National Forest. Information on this incident was unavailable from the forest service. Cedar Creek Falls trailhead and trail have been closed since July by the United States Forest Service following the death of a teen at the falls, numerous rescues, and complaints by neighbors of the trailhead. The closure is scheduled to last through April 1, 2012, while the forest service devises a better management plan for the trail.

School district ends banner year of honors, awards By PIXIE SULSER Education was a hot topic in the news in 2011, with budget cuts, higher class sizes, increased demand for student achievement, and the differences among the various players in the field. What may be overlooked are the positive things that happen in schools. In the Ramona Unified School District, 2011 might be considered a banner year. James Dukes Elementary started the 2011 school year with a dedication to creating a “college bound attitude.” New Principal Pauline Leavitt explained that “James Dukes is working to become a ‘No Excuses University.’ We plan to have our NEU application complete and submitted at the start of 2012 making us part of an education network that promotes college bound goals for their students.” Continuing to hold the distinction of a California Distinguished School, Mt. Woodson Elementary may soon be joined by Barnett Elementary, which earned eligibility for the same award and has submitted its application. Barnett is home to the 2011 Ramona District Teacher of the Year, first grade teacher Robin Koch, and a San Diego County Teachers are Heroes award recipient, Judy Gunnett. “Being one of two elementary sites to pilot iPads in the classroom and having our choir travel to San Diego to participate in a television taping of holiday singing are

some other highlights of our year,” shared Principal Kim Reed. Music filled the air at Ramona Community School as well with the formation of its first middle school choir under the direction of Valerie McElroy. Other highlights of 2011 for RCS include “a whole school Olympics, highlighting various college teams. We had our first Ecology Fair and our fifth and sixth grade classes performed ‘Sound of Music’ to rave reviews in May,” said Carol Tennebaum, RCS principal. Along with the library technician at RCS and the principal at Ramona Elementary School, the entire district was honored with the Technology Leadership Award from the Technology Training of America. “Our librarian was recognized as a Technology Hero. She was given a beautiful plaque and 10 computers for our school,” said Tennebaum. The 2011 school year started with technology as a major goal of the district. In support of that goal, six classroom teachers representing Hanson, Barnett, Mt. Woodson, Montecito and RHS formed a collaborative known as the iLearners. The teachers are piloting the use of mobile technology in the classroom via iPads and iTouches. “This is an exciting adventure that beckons to each of us as models for teaching in the very near future,” said Superintendent Robert Graeff. Hanson Elementary enjoyed a highlight

as 2011 drew to a close with bikes for their entire second and third grade population, courtesy of the Bikes for Kids Foundation as was reported in a recent front page story in the Sentinel. A huge recognition for Olive Peirce Middle School came near the end of 2011 when the site was named as a California Taking Center Stage School to Watch. “This is a prestigious award for middle schools on both the state and national level,” commented Graeff. OPMS was one of only four schools in the state recognized as a School to Watch for 2011-12. RUSD also received its third consecutive Golden Bell Award in 2011 for the Ramona Reads! Project, a partnership between the district’s 10 schools and the Ramona Public Library. Montecito High School started a new trimester system this year. “We have three trimesters, so students can complete credit recovery or work ahead to meet graduation requirements,” shared MHS Principal Cynthia Nakhshab. “In 2011-12, as MHS staff and students work together, we share a common goal which is steady and positive progress towards earning a high school diploma…no matter what issues face us at home, in the community or in the world.” Ramona High School was designated a California Distinguished High School with an Exemplary Career Technical Education

Program in 2011. “We were one of only seven schools with this distinction in the entire state,” Principal Tony Newman said proudly. “Additionally, we saw the highest CAHSEE (California High School Exit Examination) scores ever, with a 90 percent passing rate in English language arts and a 94 percent in math.” RHS enjoyed a visit from California State Future Farmers of America officers. “It is an honor to have state officers come to your school,” said Vanessa Tobin, RHS agriculture teacher and FFA advisor. “Because there are so many agriculture programs in California, the state officers can’t go to every school every year, which means each school gets visited once about every three years.” Wrestler and 2011 RHS graduate Connor Koch, now a freshman at the University of California San Luis Obispo, earned recognition as the San Diego County Student Athlete of the Year, “a first for our RHS program,” shared Newman. The RHS Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps was recognized at the Navy National Champions for the Cyber Patriot 2011 competition, and the RHS Royal Alliance band and color guard won five first place trophies during the 2011 marching band season. All in all, not at a bad year for the students, staff and administrators of RUSD. Let’s see what 2012 will bring.

Ramona 2011

A Look Back

s usual in our community, a lot of things happened in the past year; here are just a few in no particular order. Grand opening of our beautiful new Ramona Library! Ramona’s local schools received numerous awards and high praise for academics, innovative programs and outstanding teachers, but they also face looming financial woes that may bring about a bond issue. The public now has access to Ramona Grasslands via a grasslands trail, and the Cedar Creek Falls trail closed after another tragic death. Progress continued on the restoration of Town Hall, and the Village Design Group nears completion of Project Ramona to revitalize downtown. Many new businesses opened in Ramona last year including: 3rd Street Grill, DaTuna Shack, Stallions Cigar Shop, Little Caesars Pizza, All About Yogurt, The Yogurt Barn, Big 5 Sporting Goods, Ramona Business Barn, Transit Van Shuttle, Just-N-Time Deli, plus a proposed Fresh & Easy to open later this year. The winery ordinance allowed tasting rooms at Ramona wineries. Among those that opened are: Edwards Vineyard & Cellars, Woof ‘n Rose Winery, Lenora Winery, Eagles Nest Winery, Pyramid Vineyard, Mahogany Mountain Vineyard & Winery and the Pamo Valley Wine tasting room on Main Street. Ramona’s Main Street Parade returned for the rodeo after several years of absence, plus local cowboys performed very well in Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association events. The water board has new members as well as a new head guy for the Ramona Municipal Water District, but the same problems persist. Proposed solar panel farm for Ramona will be decided in 2012. Ramona Chamber of Commerce looks for a new director and a new direction. These are just a few of the interesting happenings that occurred in our community in 2011, and the new year promises to be just as interesting — so get ready for another wild ride. Happy New Year!

You know how I feel about how much influence citizens of Ramona have over the decisions of the RCPG and the County of San Diego Planning Dept. but, thanks to Jeff Mitchell’s editorial in the Sentinel, I thought of a new quote from one of my favorite RCPG members, Bob Hailey. I thought his following quote would be worthy of Ramona’s file titled “this is why we need to vote Bob Hailey (and some other members) off the RCPG.” While I was discussing a

topic with one of Bob Hailey’s friends with Bob present, the topic of why the new school on Boundary was constructed in such an inaccessible location, Bob proudly stated, ”you can thank me for that.” Not knowing the reason one would take credit for such a poor decision (evidently, he was on the school board at the time that decision to expend a few million dollars for a new school when the future of Ramona school district’s cash flow was in doubt). It took Jeff Mitchell (publisher of the Ramona Sentinel) to remind me of

an old saying, “stupid is what stupid gets.” Read the Mitchell editorial about how the Ramona school district is seriously hurting for money. Unfortunately, he only uses the old liberal phrase, ”the way we can solve this problem is to work together.” Sometimes I want to vomit when I hear that phrase “we have to work together” — like its gonna solve every problem mankind will/has ever faced. Jeff, c’mon, sometime one has to man up and really say something of substance. You should’ve said, ”we had too many stupid people on the school board over the last 25 years... we kept giving too much to the school union demands...we didn’t understand the birthrate trends over the last 25 years.” Well, folks, a big “duh” to Jeff and the school See LETTERS on page 9

Vandals destroy Winter Wonderland

How sad. Every year for the past six years children and teens have vandalized the Christmas lights on our home, crushing reindeer, cutting wires and stealing. Every year I have said to myself “They can’t dampen the spirit of the holidays.” I guess I have come to the conclusion the time and money spent is not worth the pain that it causes my wife and I when it happens. This year was the best and at approximately 10:15 p.m. (Dec. 21) a group of vandals went across our lawn and damaged the “Winter Wonderland” that we worked so hard to put up. It has been nice to receive one of the prizes the last few years from the San Diego Country Estates Association for the display and to have so many thank us for the display. Reindeer removed and waterfalls turned off, we will leave a skeleton of what was, maybe set all in our own backyard — not the same as a gift to everyone else to see. Brian Manna Ramona

Sewer and development

Ramona Municipal Water District’s sewer (Santa Maria plant) is currently operating at 110 percent of its rated capacity. This caused a sewer “spill” incident in December 2010 putting Santa Maria Creek in dangerous peril. So how are developments being proposed and passed in Ramona where additional sewage will be generated? Package Treatment Plants (PTP) have been the method of getting

the developer’s foot into Ramona’s sewage system’s door. When Mt. Woodson was developed, a PTP was built with the intent of the homeowners association operating its own PTP. But PTPs are not easy to run or cheap to repair when things go wrong. With eventual failure, Mt. Woodson development hooked up to Ramona’s sewer system. Burdens placed on Ramona’s sewer system by Mt. Woodson were paid for by existing sewer users in the form of increased sewer rates. Montecito Ranch development and the head trauma facility expansion both used the same PTP approach to getting their projects approved, with the long-term hope of hooking up to Ramona’s sewage system without paying for sewer capacity increases needed for their developments. The Cumming Ranch housing development is the next one “down the pipe.” How does it plan on processing the sewage of its 125 houses at the intersection of Highland Valley/Dye Road and Highway 67? Another PTP with less open space? Where is the Cumming Ranch developer putting a sprayﬁeld? We hope it will not be in the “open space nature conservation area”

between Etcheverry Creek and Santa Maria Creek. In the 2020 general plan, Ramona and Valley Center are the main areas targeted to take on the majority of the growth of the county, meaning more of these PTPs are being proposed to enable development in our community — with failures experienced in the past. Is a hodge-podge of multiple mini-sewage plants spraying efﬂuent on ﬁelds throughout our valley the solution we want to leave our children? Maybe a better plan is to preserve our grasslands and tell the County of San Diego to put its growth plans elsewhere. We want to keep Ramona rural. Ken Taft Ramona

Ideology can be idiotic

The other day I came out of Target and was engaged by a man who wanted my signature on a petition to kill the Dream Act. The Dream Act would give scaled levels of residency to undocumented immigrants. As an example, if they have been here ﬁve years, ﬁnished high school, two years of college or have served in the military, etc., they could become legal residents. My response to the petitioner — “How about

we put the people that employ the illegals in jail, and really ﬁx the problem” — was met with the petitioner’s ideology that was in my view idiotic. He launched into a tirade about how it’s anyone’s Constitutional right to employ anyone they want regardless of their legal status, and that the government must never be allowed to intervene when a contract between an employer and an employee. He cited an example where, if an employer wanted to pay $5 per hour and an employee was OK

with that, then the government has no say. Furthermore, the petitioner told me that the proﬁt made by that contract was wholly the property of the employer and, if the employer got rich, so be it. I have heard this Libertarian rant before, but I am always shocked by the people who spew it, as they seem determined to make others believe that people earning wages that barely pay for food, a.k.a. slavery, is a good thing for America. I do not believe that a

burgeoning population of poor and uneducated people is good for America, unless we all want to enjoy the beneﬁts of a thirdworld nation where a few are ﬁlthy rich and everyone else is scrambling to survive. The idiocy in the petitioner’s ideology rang true when he told me that he was earning $5 per hour pushing petitions, and he was OK with it. All I could do was to wish him a wonderful life in poverty.

Ramona man sentenced in Christmas 2010 DUI collision By NEAL PUTNAM A drunk driver who sent four people to the hospital in a three-car collision on state Route 67 at Dye Road on Christmas 2010 has been sentenced to five years and four months in state prison. El Cajon Superior Court Judge Peter Deddeh denied probation for John Charles Walters, 51, on Dec. 23. The judge noted Walters’ three prior convictions and said he was not amenable to be placed on probation again. “It’s his fourth DUI,” said Deputy District Attorney Andrew Aguilar.

Aguilar said the three previous drunk driving convictions were all misdemeanors and only one involved an injury. When Walters pleaded guilty to drunk driving with injuries in this case in August, it was his first felony conviction. Aguilar and the probation department recommended eight years and four months in prison. Walters’ attorney asked for probation. His blood/alcohol level was .26, three times the legal limit, according to court records. The incident occurred at 11:05 p.m. on Christmas evening and it was raining at the time.

Walters could have received a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. He didn’t say anything in court. Several messages were left with his attorney afterwards, but he could not be reached for comment. Walters received credit for almost a year in jail and was fined approximately $2,000. Possible restitution may be determined in a later hearing. The four injured victims were Ian Fay, Emma Pineda, Rudy Evangelista and Eddie Evangelista. Walters was driving a 2002 Dodge 2500 truck when he rear-ended a Dodge Ram 3500 truck that was stopped for a red light at an intersection.

Fay, of Ramona, was driving the Dodge 3500 truck, and the force of that collision sent Fay’s vehicle into a Honda Odyssey that was driven by Emma Pineda, of Poway. Two passengers in Pineda’s car were injured. The victims earlier testified they suffered fractured vertebrae and loss of consciousness, and stitches were needed to close wounds at a hospital. Walters was arrested Christmas night and posted $50,000 bond on Jan. 4. He had three weeks of freedom until Jan. 24 when a prosecutor won a bail increase to $175,000 and Walters returned to jail.

ing wild and domestic animals, with commissioned

pet portraits in homes throughout the country. The Ramona resident’s second love is working with children, both as a business and as a volunteer for 30 years. A graduate of Saint Andrew’s University in North Carolina, she is one of the few art teachers who also practices her craft. Bainbridge developed an art camp at which she teaches every summer in Poway and Scripps Ranch. Photos from these pro-

grams are on her websites at www.artstart1.com and www.artstart1.blogspot. com. “For the past 23 years of teaching, I have seen the results that happen when one expands a child’s world and offers them new possibilities,” she said. In addition to her teaching, Bainbridge volunteers with the Ramona Art Guild and Ramona Open Studios Tour organizing exhibits, maintaining websites and writing newsletters.

Auditions slated for Ramona Community Theater comedy Auditions for Ramona Community Theater’s production of “Socrates Tomb” will be held in the Ramona Library Community Room, 1275 Main St., from 7 to 9 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 13. “This is an hilarious play written by Ramona’s very own A.J. Bess,” said Amy Krause, the troupe’s artistic director, adding that Bess wrote the fastpaced comical murder mystery with Daniel Stapp. The production calls for two female and ﬁve male roles, all from ages 25 to 35, even though there are 17 characters in the play. Those auditioning are to come prepared with a one-minute comic monologue, short resume and head shot. For more information, contact Krause at traincases@gmail.com.

Don’t just make 1 resolution, make 8!

‘The Eight F’s of Health’

have put this topic in my column once before, but I think it’s worth another look for the new year. I challenge you to take an inventory of your life and do what I call “The 8 F’s.” Take out a pen and paper and write down three things you can do to improve these critical areas. Faith — What areas can you do better in your faith? Start with a daily devotional. Not a person of faith? Do this for me anyway. Stop and in the quiet of your heart ask to become a person of faith. Step out and don’t make yourself the end all be all authority for you, search for yourself, visit a local church and be open. Family — Start a game or movie night with the family, go out on a date minimum once per month. Take your spouse out to lunch or show up at your child’s school for lunch. Start camping with the family. Fitness — Do one thing this year to be healthier. Make a better bad choice. Pass on the burger and get a fried chicken sandwich; you’ll save 300 calories, and it’s a start. Go for a walk twice a week. Join a gym. I know a great one. Finances — Do you

spend what you make or more? Put a little away, and forgo instant gratification. Friends — Do you have friends that build you up or tear you down? Jim Rohn, motivational speaker states, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” How are you doing in that arena of your life? It sounds harsh, but “You can’t fly with eagles when you hangout with turkeys.” Function — Work and Career. How much do you love your job? Be thankful you have work right now, but if you can’t stand your job, make an exit strategy to do something you are

really passionate about. Go back to night or online school to make this happen. Fun — You must have an element of adventure or fun in your life. Take up a team sport, join a club, golf, craft or do whatever it is you love. Future Legacy — What will you be remembered for? What family traditions and values are you instilling in your kids and those around you? What will the dash between the years on your headstone stand for? Your legacy starts now, not after you leave this earth. Let’s make this new year a time that we take a strong look at the 8 Forms of Health (The 8 F’s) and resolve to stretch ourselves and make a commitment to be 1 percent better every day. Please visit my YouTube Channel and watch a special video I created just for this exercise. Just log on to YouTube.com and search Ramona Fitness.

Lake Ramona

list of liability concerns and possible legal costs was included in the memo. Referring to a liability concern of physical body contact on the lake without supervision, Owens said he has fished using a float tube at both Lake Cuyamaca and Barrett Reservoir and his body does not come in contact with the water. RMWD legal counsel Sophie Akins of Best Best & Krieger noted that other area lakes are owned by different types of agencies or by municipalities. “Every agency is governed by a different set of statutes,” she said. Other district concerns listed were the possibility it could draw requests for other water sport activities, and emergency access for first responders would be difficult due to the hazzardous terrain around the lake. Public access to the lake is restricted to non-motorized vehicles through the Blue Sky Preserve in Poway. “The lake is so beautiful...It’s hardly accessible to Ramona unfortunately,” said Owens. Annette Finley, RMWD manager of human resources and risk management, said the district would need approval from Joint Powers Insurance Authority (JPIA) before a program to allow float tubes is in place.

JPIA is a pool of insurance carriers through which the district purchases insurance. Board members and staff discussed how the allowance of float tubes would affect the insurance and what costs would factor in to prepare such a plan. Other staff time and possible costs listed included investigating requirements from the California Department of Public Health, the Bureau of Land Managment and the Department of Dams. Akins noted that more government regulations have been created over the years that would affect use of the lake today. To deal with the legal and regulatory system can be a lengthy process, she said. RMWD General Manager David Barnum echoed those comments. “I do not anticipate regulatory agencies will be more generous than in the past,” he said. Director Joe Zenovic noted that Santee Lakes is a hub of community activitiy. “We have no specific use of that lake today other than storing water,” he said. “We have an asset that perhaps could generate some money for us. Right now it’s just a full but empty asset. Full of water but empty of use.” “To me, Lake Ramona has been a white elephant,” said Hager, who then made a motion to accept staff’s

From page 1 recommendation of not allowing float tubes. That vote failed with Zenovic, Board President Bryan Wadlington and Director Kit Kesinger opposing. Wadlington made a motion to explore uses of Lake Ramona. The motion passed 4-1 with Hager voting no. Lake Ramona, in the Highland Valley area north of Mt. Woodson, was built by RMWD during the 1980s as a reservoir to provide a dependable and uninterruptible future source of water, according to the RMWD website. It can hold as much as 12,000 acre feet of water behind an earthen dam. The $32 million dam was approved by voters in 1981. According to RMWD Director Darrell Beck, the lake provides untreated water primarily for commercial growers in Highland Valley area, and the number of those customers is decreasing. The lake has not been used to its potential, Beck said, due to the high costs to treat the water. The district had to either build a water treatment plant in that part of town or run a cross-town pipeline to the Bargar water treatment plant, he said. “Neither one of these ideas was done by the district,” Beck said, adding that both of those projects are no longer financially viable.

Court upholds law abolishing redevelopment agencies California Supreme Court last Thursday upheld a new law that will abolish community redevelopment agencies. The state’s high court also struck down a companion statute that allowed local governments to keep the agencies alive by making payments to the state. Redevelopment proponents argued that voter-passed Proposition 22, which bars the state from seizing local tax money, invalidated both laws. Redevelopment agencies are funded by the increase in tax revenue created by projects in their areas. Supporters of the laws passed by the

Legislature earlier this year, including Gov. Jerry Brown, say the money is better used to fund schools and other municipal functions during tight budgetary times.They cite a state analyst’s report that shows the cost of redevelopment growing without any tangible economic benefit to the state. Since the court ruling aborted the plan to allow local governments to buy back into redevelopment, the agencies will be phased out when their currently contracted projects are completed. The agencies fund major building projects, like proposed new football stadiums

The County of San Diego Redevelopment Agency has two project areas, the Upper San Diego River Improvement Project Area and the Gillespie Field Project Area, which are focused on the promotion of private sector investment and development in the two project areas.

Locals contribute to homebound seniors’ wish lists By KAREN BRAINARD Ramona Senior Center collected a mountain of gifts for homebound seniors this season, all donated by local groups and individuals. For approximately nine years, the senior center has conducted the “Homebound Christmas Gift Giving Program,” granting the wishes of those seniors unable to get out and shop.

“With the help of the community we try to fulfill our homebound seniors’ gift wishes,” said Jackie Creighton, who heads up the project and works as bookkeeper of the senior center. This year they fulfilled the wishes of 112 homebound seniors from Ramona, Santa Ysabel, Mesa Grande, Lake Henshaw, Warner Springs, Ranchita and Valley Center. The wrapped presents

were set to be delivered between Dec. 12 and 23 by the homebound meal delivery drivers, said Creighton. The seniors were asked in late October what they needed for Christmas and their names and needs were distributed to groups and individuals. Gifts can include flannel sheets, hooded sweatshirts, bath towels, electric can openers — ”a wide range of gifts,”

said Creighton. “It seems like most of them ask for things to keep them warm and cozy.” Participating in the program by donating gifts were Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, First Congregational Church, Girl Scout troops from Ramona and Julian, Ramona Valley 4-H and employees of the Ramona Municipal Water District. Ramona residents participating included Mr. and Mrs. E.

Intermountain Republican women install new officers Sallie McKelvey will continue to lead Intermountain Republican Women Federated (IRWF). Installation of the organization’s 2012 executive board was during the Dec. 16 meeting at the San Vicente Golf Resort. In addition to McKelvey, executive board officers include: Mary Kafka, vice president–programs; Sandy Hurlburt, recording secretary; Rachael Gilmore, treasurer; Bonnie Munt, ways and means; and Sean Tenwolde, membership. Rachel Meyer, out-going president of the San Diego County Federation of Republican Women and a Ramona resident and past IRWF president, presided at the installation ceremony. IRWF is affiliated with the National Federation of Republican Women, the largest all-volunteer women’s partisan political organization in the country. “Our strength comes from diversity of opinion, ethnicities and backgrounds, and our power from our grass-

roots activism,” said McKelvey. “Our mission is to see women from all age groups and walks of life as key players at the political table on national, state and local issues. We encourage our members to be informed so they can become role models to younger women.” IRWF offers the opportunity each year for high school seniors to participate in its

scholarship program. Locally they provide gifts from their membership to needy families during the Christmas holiday and send good-will packages to deployed service personnel from our community. “We participate and serve countless hours volunteering in our local library, senior center and our churches,” said McKelvey.

All are welcome to attend one of the group’s lunch meetings, usually held on the fourth Monday of the month. “Our speakers are chosen from the political arena, from women in leadership positions and ordinary people of outstanding acumen,” said McKelvey. For more information about meetings and IRWF, contact McKelvey at 760-789-7332.

year may call the senior center at 760-789-0440. The senior center also gave out candy cane reindeer to those seniors who lunch at the center. Creighton said Ramona Girl Scout troops made about 300 candy cane reindeer, using supplies donated by Gail Lemonds, a Ramona resident who volunteers at the center.

Car slams into front yard By KAREN BRAINARD Two men in San Diego Country Estates say they were almost hit the Wednesday before Christmas when a car came speeding down the hill of Vista Vicente Drive and ended up in a front yard after the driver allegedly lost control of the vehicle. The 52-year-old driver was transported by Cal Fire/ Ramona Fire Department paramedics to Pomerado Hospital, said CHP Officer Dan Matthews. “Alcohol is believed to be a factor,” Matthews said. Skid marks showed the car cut across the driveway of Malcom and Nanette Hill’s home at 15554 Vista Vicente Drive. The car then drove over landscaping of rocks and plants and hit a tree. Matthews said the driver came “too fast around the curve, loses control, overcorrects.” He then rotated clockwise, skidding into the yard, Matthews said. Hill’s son, Craig, said he

was putting out the trash at the end of his parent’s driveway and was talking to 85-year-old Elliott Fox across the street just before the accident at 4:10 p.m. Both men estimated the car was traveling 60 to 70 mph in the 25 mph speed zone. “Suddenly we heard this noise,” said Fox. “I couldn’t believe when I heard it. I couldn’t believe the speed.

He never put on his brakes.” Fox said if he had been standing where Hill was, he wouldn’t have been able to move quickly enough and would have been hit. Hill said he had to make a quick decision which way to move. “I jumped almost over to the yellow line. I was probably 10 feet away from getting hit,” he said.

The FAFSA is used by nearly all institutions to determine eligibility for federal, state and college-sponsored ﬁnancial aid as well as consideration for federal student loans. Whether a family believes they are eligible for ﬁnancial aid or not, the FAFSA is generally required, and families are encouraged to complete the form as soon as possible after Jan. 1. Information regarding the FAFSA will be shared at the RHS Financial Aid Night. In addition, the RHS College & Career Center, located in E10, is hosting FAFSA Days on Feb. 22, 23, 27, 28 and 29 as

well as March 1 and 2. The center is open Monday through Thursday during sixth period for seniors and after school from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., “however we will have extended hours until 8 p.m. on March 2 for any last-minute filers,” said College & Career Center Adviser Lisa Filice. Additional times are available by appointment.

From page 1 tuition increase,” it may be more important than ever for students to explore options for funding college education, explained Best. Several scholarship opportunities are available during the month of January. The San Diego Foundation, www.sdfoundation.org, provides a common application allowing students to apply for over 100 scholarships. Additionally, FORD Salute to Education offers scholarships to students in San Diego County. “The FORD scholarships do not have a minimum grade point average requirement and they have a scholarship category for everyone. Students have a chance to win $1,000 and one student from San Diego will win a brand new car,” said Best. Seniors planning to attend Palomar Community College may take their college placements tests at RHS on Feb. 3 and 6. Interested students may sign up in the College & Career Center. Palomar College also offers a scholarship for ﬁrst year students. The deadline is Feb. 14.

Best advised that students planning to attend other area community colleges should check with their college of interest to see if the institution will accept the Palomar College placement tests and if the college offers any scholarship opportunities. Students and parents can keep apprised of upcoming scholarships and deadlines through the RHS counseling web page and RHS Counseling on Facebook. Students may also contact Best at tbest@ramonausd.net requesting inclusion in informational emails notifying families of new scholarships and other college information. Counselors will visit classrooms in early spring to distribute the local scholarship packet. “Although we are focusing on seniors right now,” said Best, “it is important that families realize it is never too early to begin exploring college options. Anyone from any grade level is welcome to the Financial Aid Night. The College & Career Center is open to all students, not just seniors.”

up with a process that does not involve the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), she said. Some projects will not be applicable for the checklist and will still require a full site plan review. The new checklist is for communities such as Ramona that are zoned with the “B” community design review special area designator. Switzer said county staff has been giving presentations to communities with “B” designators to receive feedback to apply to the final draft of the checklist. The county board of supervisors will give final approval of the checklist, she said, and the hope is to have it in place by mid-year 2012. Switzer said of the proposed checklist: “It’s taking the existing guidelines for better or worse and making standards out of them.” The checklist she presented was specific to Ramona, she added. It states that site layout design standards should do the following: •Demonstrate an overall design integrity and a serious attempt to contribute to the beauty and harmony of the commu-

nity. •Contribute to the community’s design objectives. •Develop compatible relationships to the land forms, building placement and existing open spaces of neighboring properties. •Respect the existing views, privacy, quiet, sun and light exposure of neighboring properties. •When land use or devlopment patterns require a project to be different from its neightbors, provide a transition from existing to new development by careful placement and massing of buildings, well-designed planting patterns and other means. •The degree to which neighboring sites and buildings must be considered in the design of a new project will depend upon the value, artchitect and quality and estimated tenure of improvements on the neighboring property, as well as the particular requirements of the new project. •Preserve the historic character of Old Town Ramona. •Preserve or recreate the architectural character of Main Street buildings as they

From page 1 looked from the 1890s to early 1920s. •Maintain the traditional pattern of buildings’ facades located on the front property lines along Main Street. •Encourage pedestrian traffic by maintaining friendly pedestrian scale and traditional “Main Street” building patterns. •Locate parking lots away from Main Street. •Every project should demonstrate that it has considered the positive influence of neighboring properties and has made a diligent effort to maintain and enhance historic Main Street building patterns. The checklist is divided by categories with several standards listed in each section. Categories include building location and orientation, parking lots, architecture, landscape, signage, lighting, low impact development, building equipment and services, multi-family residential and industrial development. Design review board member Rob Lewallen said the Ramona Village Design Group is working on Project Ramona, a plan to revitalize the town core, and hopes to have design guidelines converted into design standards in two to four

months. “How does that jibe with the work you’ve done already?” he asked Switzer. She said the list would only apply to areas outside the borders of Project Ramona. “The standards for that area (Project Ramona) will be built into the zoning code,” she noted. Switzer told the board the presentation was meant to be an introduction and she would like a unified response by the end of January. Board member Greg Roberson, however, said that the board will not meet again until Jan. 26. In other business, architect and former design review board member Carole Wylie presented minor changes to plans for a Starbucks that will share space at the Bank of Southern California at Main and 13th streets. Representing the project, Wylie said the Starbucks would be at the east side of the building toward the Ramona Library and would use one of the drive-throughs that the bank does not use. The plan is to have it finished by November 2012, Wylie said. The board endorsed the project.

Cagers earn third place trophy in Tri-City tourney By BILL TAMBURRINO The Ramona Bulldog basketball team advanced to the semifinals in the championship bracket in the Tri-City Christian Holiday Basketball Tournament and rallied to take home the third place trophy. The tourney was old school. It was a 16-team tournament with a winners bracket and a consolation bracket. The Dawgs opened by beating Pacific Ridge High School of Carlsbad 62-34. Chris Durham led the Dawgs by recording a double-double. Durham scored 14 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. Jonathan Schirer led all scorers with 18 points. Schirer also had eight boards. The game was close at half with Ramona leading 26-19. The Dawgs then outscored the Firebirds 3615 in the second half. Zach White (2), Travis Stevens (9), Ryan Heiar (2), Dylan Fieger (7), Jordan Farhat (4) and Matt Lawler (6) also scored for the Dawgs. Schirer added excitement to the offense with two slam dunks. Ramona opened day two of the tournament by beating Rose and Alex Pilibos Armenian Academy of Los Angeles 69-47. Durham continued to sizzle as he had a season high 23 points and grabbed a game high nine boards. Schirer again joined Dur-

ham in the double figure scoring category. Schirer scored 16 points. Heiar had his best rebounding game of the season as he grabbed nine rebounds to go along with his 6 points. Kwayde Miller (6), Fieger (2), Farhat (4), White (8) and Lawler (4) also scored in the victory. Stevens led the Dawg defense with three steals. Ramona’s offense struggled in the second and third quarters against Holy Martyrs Armenian School of Encino, and it cost

Stevens was the only Bulldog to score in double digits. The senior guard scored 11 points. Miller (8), Schirer (3), Durham (5), White (3) and Lawler also scored for Ramona. Lawler led the Dawgs in rebounding with six boards. Schirer grabbed five rebounds. Ramona bounced back to take home the trophy for third place with a 6947 win over the Frogs of Guajome Park Academy of Vista. Schirer scored a season

high 24 points to pace the Bulldogs. Miller and Fieger also tallied in double figures as they scored 13 and 10 points, respectfully. Lawler had a monster game on the boards. The sophomore forward grabbed a season high 13 rebounds and scored nine points. Stevens scored 8 points and grabbed five boards. Durham scored 5 points and had two rebounds. The Dawgs now are 6-7 overall as they enter cross league play before starting Palomar League play.

Girls finish strong in Wolverine tournament By BILL TAMBURRINO Ramona’s girls basketball team got off to a slow start in the Wolverine Invitational Basketball Tournament but finished strong. The Lady Dawgs went 2-2 in the tourney and will enter 2012 with a 10-5 record. “We are playing very well as a team,” said Coach Erin O’Connor. “We play very aggressive team defense and every girl on the team knows her role and does her job.” One example that O’Connor gave came after the final game of the tournament against Mission Hills. “Julie Ward and Tiana Zuniga were asked to guard their best player, Amanda Darouie, who has

been averaging in double figures. They teamed up to hold her to 8 points and that really hurt their offense.” Ramona’s slow start against Valley Center in the opening game cost the Bulldogs the game. Valley Center jumped out to a 20-2 first quarter lead. Ramona outscored the Jaguars 39-20 for the rest of the game but could not overcome the bad start. Kim Whelehon led Ramona with 9 points. RaeAnne VanTol and Paige Conroy scored 8 points apiece. Julie Ward (1), Tiana Zuniga (5), and Ashlyn Savage (5) also scored in the game. Ramona lost to OlymSee BASKETBALL on page 32

wrestlers had the most successful season of all winter sports in 2011. The Dawgs finished second in the Palomar League, second in the CIF and second in the Masters. Ten wrestlers advanced to the Masters Meet, and six medaled. Josh Allen, Devin Rhodes, Spaso Ilich, Connor Koch, Marshal Thrash-

er and Brodie Chenowth earned CIF honors, and Rhodes, Ilich, Thrasher, Koch and Chenowth advanced to the State Meet in Bakersfield. The Dawgs took up where they left off in December as they are 2-0 in dual meets and are doing well in tourneys. Rhodes is one of the top-ranked

wrestlers in San Diego and the state. Boys Basketball The winter sports started January halfway through their 2011 schedule. Ken Scheib’s bulldog basketball team entered 2011 with an 8-6 record and won two of his first three games in the new year to enter Palomar League ac-

All this end-zone dancing at pro games is amateurish

have a confession to make. I have been listening to sports talk radio and watching too many sports talk shows on television. Both have gotten the best of me and I have been seeing red. When Willey “White Shoes” Johnson did what many believed was the ﬁrst touchdown celebration dance, his version of the Funky Chicken, it was original and new and in some ways entertaining. That was in 1975 and he was on the now defunct Houston Oilers. Maybe that is why they are now defunct. I don’t know for sure. Ickey Woods also came up with a dance in the 1980s when he was with the Cincinnati Bengals. The NFL considered banning planned end zone celebrations but unfortunately after an investigation they didn’t (have the guts)! Those were original to some extent, but now, 37 years later, there is nothing original about dancing or

Acting like an idiot may be natural, but it is not spontaneous. end zone celebrations. Everybody who scores tries to come up with a dance or moves of their own. Some who don’t get into the end zone very often are now coming up with ﬁrst down moves and gyrations. When Mark Gastineau of the New York Jets sacked Jim Plunkett of the then Los Angeles Raiders in 1982 and did something like a dance, it was sort of original. Most thought it was bush. It actually looked more like a seizure than a dance. Now almost everybody who makes a tackle or trips over a guy who makes a tackle has some sort of celebration. Some even say that they are spontaneous. Pulling a Sharpie out of your sock and signing a ball is not spontaneous. Mocking a player on the other team who went to prison for shooting himself in the leg

is not spontaneous. Running 20 yards from all of the other players to draw attention to one’s self is not spontaneous. Acting like an idiot may be natural, but it is not spontaneous. The guy who mocked the former prisoner cost his team a game and probably a playoff berth. That is spontaneous. Congratulating a teammate is spontaneous. Being happy and jumping up and down is spontaneous. Jumping into the stands is no longer spontaneous. Pointing to the heavens is getting trite. Baseball has a way of monitoring celebrations that are bush. What I ﬁnd ironic is that callers and commentators are criticizing Tim Tebow for saying a prayer of thanks. Tebow leaves the ﬁeld and kneels down and says a prayer of thanks when he makes a good play. It is impossible to

get out of camera range, as Nick Novak found out when nature made a call but Tebow doesn’t try to draw attention to himself, in my opinion. People are not upset when a player acts like an idiot, but thanking one’s God draws criticism. Go ﬁgure. I have an idea. Allow players to do their orchestrations when they make a play. But they have to draw attention to themselves when they blow a play, get beat, fumble, get intercepted, miss a tackle. Then football would look more like the June Taylor Dancers than the NFL. I have already made my thought clear about the color pink. Let’s beat that

disease! The Raiders have always been the bad guys in black. San Diego State’s colors have always been black. Army has been the Black Knights on the Hudson for a long time. Oregon State, Missouri and dozens of other teams have always worn black uniforms. Now more teams that don’t have black as a part of their school’s colors are wearing black than are wearing their real colors. Everybody hates the Raiders, but everybody wants to look and act like them. I watched a bowl game with Arizona State playing Boise State. My daughter and son went to ASU and their ofﬁcial colors are maroon and gold. I looked it

up. ASU wore almost all black uniforms against Boise State and they were a black eye for their fans and school. They tried to get more penalties than the Raiders. They succeeded. Just about every high school team and college team now wears black, no matter what their school is. I guess we should just be thankful that the Raiders’ colors are not magenta or mauve or neon. Then all of the wanabees would be wearing those colors. When the University of Oregon started wearing ugly uniforms, it was original. They brought new meaning and new numerical possibilities to the concept of ugly uniforms. Nike originated at Oregon and sponsors the Ducks’ uniforms. Maryland has now gotten in the race. Under Armour’s founder went to Maryland. Under Armour is trying to out ugly Oregon in the uniform marSee TimeOut on page 33

tournament. Durham registered a double, scoring 14 points and grabbing 14 rebounds against Pacific Ridge High School. He scored a season high 23 points against Pilibos with nine boards.

Durham scored 5 points against Holy Martyrs and Guajome Park to average 11.75 points and seven rebounds a game in the tournament. Schirer and Durham are seniors and their leadership skills are not limited to the basketball court. Both plan to attend college next year. For their outstanding play and leadership skills Schirer and Durham have been selected as the Ramona Sentinel Co-Athletes of the Week.

Barona provides backdrop for 2011 Bulldog football awards By BILL TAMBURRINO Running back/linebacker/special teams player Kirk Kaliszewski needed a truck to haul away the hardware that he received at the 2011 Bulldog football awards banquet at Barona Resort. Kaliszewski received an award for being a team captain to open the banquet. He shouldn’t have returned to his seat as he was called back to receive the Most Inspirational Player Award, then the Most Valuable Offensive Player Award and finally Most Valuable Player on the Team. The always smiling senior with the shaggy haircut received a standing ovation with the award. “That is what our team thought about Kirk,” said Coach Damon Baldwin. “All of the awards were voted on by the team except for the Scholar Athlete and the Coaches Big Dawg Award. Kirk was our leader on offense, defense and our emotional leader.” Seniors Erik Box and Luke Papps also were honored as team captains. Sophomore Ryan Lopez was voted the team’s Offensive Scout Team Player of the Year. Senior Sam Noel was selected Defensive Scout Team Player of the Year. Senior Kwayde Miller and sophomore Christian Drews were voted the Most Improved Offensive Players of the Year. Sophomore Patrick Hastings was selected as the Most Improved Defensive Player of

the Year. Miller shared the Offensive Lineman of the Year honors with Luke Papps. Papps is the first Bulldog to earn that honor two years in a row. Junior Daniel Kemp was the team’s Defensive Lineman of the Year. Senior Ben Woods earned the Scholar Athlete of the Year by achieving a 4.65 grade point average on a scale of 4.0. Woods hit the books as hard as he hit opponents. The Special Teams Player of the Year award went to junior Javier Dominguez. Dominguez also was voted as the team’s Most Valuable Defensive Player. The coaches selected Elias Jauregui as the Coaches “Big Dawg” Award winner. The coaches select the player who most epitomizes what a Bulldog football player should be. Ability, dedication, sportsmanship, scholarship and leadership are all criteria for the award. “Jauregui played defense, special teams and stepped in on offense when Kaliszewski went down and gave it all he had on every play. He was an inspirational leader,” explained Baldwin. Lauren Teets, Samantha Koegel, Alyssa Sherman, Anthony Bishop and Kory Baldwin received plaques for their year-round effort as hydration team members. The hydration team keeps the players hydrated in the Dog Days of Spring, Summer and Hell Week and at every practice and game.

Whelehon and Conroy had excellent offensive performances, said O’Connor. Whelehon scored 18 points as she hit four from beyond the three point arch. Conroy scored 16 points with three 3-pointers.

VanTol recorded a double as she scored 12 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. Whelehon also scored in double figures with 10 points. Buckley scored all of her 7 points in the first quarter. Kailey Hill (6) and Mauldin (2) also scored. Ramona used the same formula that worked so well against La Jolla to beat Mission Hills. The Ladies

Whelehon led all scorers with 12 points scored exclusively from beyond the 3-point line. VanTol got all 11 of her points in the paint and from the charity stripe from being fouled in the paint. Conroy returned to score 6 points. Hill had a season 9 points. Buckley (3), Ward (2) and Mauldin (3) also scored. Mauldin and VanTol shared the rebounding honors with five boards apiece.

OBITUARIES

Alayne Armstrong 1928 - 2011

Alayne Sylvia (Abbott) Armstrong, 83, who lived with her husband Robert on Rutherford Road in San Diego Country Estates from 1994 through 2006, passed away peacefully at home in Leisure World, Seal Beach, California, early on November 26, 2011, in the company of family and friends. Alayne was born on September 1, 1928 in Santa Monica. She was married for 63 years to her high school beau, Robert M. Armstrong, who died this past February, 2011. Alayne is survived by her seven grown children and their

spouses: David (Donna), Douglas (Lori), Marilyn McElligott, Barbara (John) Richard, Diana (Steve) Zook, Frank (Donna Willinsky), and Daniel (Valentine Kephart); plus nine grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. Alayne is also survived by her younger sister, Aladel (Del) Pfohl of Garden Grove. Alayne was a lifelong cellist, having started at age nine when her school orchestra in Santa Monica needed someone to learn the cello. By age 15, she decided the cello would be her career focus in the larger discipline of music. Beginning in high school, she studied with master cello teachers in the L.A. area and played with numerous orchestras, including several decades with the Long Beach Symphony where she was principal cellist for many years and later the Pacific Symphony in Orange County, plus many chamber ensembles. Alayne was also a dedicated teacher of the cello for over 50 years and member of the American String Teachers Assn. (ASTA). She taught cello mostly at home,

1925 – 2011

Doris was born November 15, 1925, in Detroit, Michigan, to Ruth and Arlie Cooper. She relocated to Ault, Colorado, when she was young and was raised on a farm where her love of art was born. Doris was always drawing on any scrap of paper she could find. This love grew and the adventure of art became her lifelong passion. As the years passed, Doris took many art classes of every medium, finally deciding that oil painting was her calling. With her knowledge, many brush strokes were made which formed some of the most beautiful paintings, especially scenes and animals. These paintings are displayed all over the world. In 1983, Doris had a medical experience that opened up a whole new world of art for her. Still painting, but now it was her ideas of the

Lord and the Bible. Some of these painting are hung in various churches and people’s homes. Her passion of the Lord grew with each passing day, creating breath taking religious paintings. This continued until about a year ago, where here health would not allow her to sit and paint anymore. Doris fought many medical battles throughout her life. Complications of congestive heart failure and Parkinson’s sent her to be with the Lord on December 27, 2011. With help from Hospice and her wonderful caring, caregiver, Jodi Canfield, Doris was able to stay in her own home till the Lord called for her. Doris has had many accomplishments in her lifetime. At the age of 73, she enrolled in night school where, with hard work, received her high school diploma. Once her mind was made up to do something, no matter how hard the challenge, her determination would see that her goal was fulfilled.

Doris was preceded in her death by her husband, Bob; son, Larry; brother, Jack; sister, Delphine; and her parents. Family left behind are her daughters, Judy Barrett of Ramona and Linda Miller of Idaho Falls, Idaho; grandchildren; many great-grandchildren; greatgreat-grandchildren; and nieces and nephews. Doris and her strong religious beliefs left a lasting impression on all that knew her. There will be a Memorial service on January 7, 2012, at 11:00 AM at the First Christian Church of Ramona. Pete Mayfield will present the opening and prayer at the service. A reception will follow in the Fellowship Hall. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations be made to: Elizabeth Hospice, 150 West Crest St., Escondido, CA 92025 in “Memory of Doris Huston”.

Ramona Sentinel

Soccer wins Southern California Classic consolation bracket By JOE NAIMAN After being relegated to the consolation bracket of the Dec. 27-29 Southern California Classic tournament, Ramona High School’s boys soccer team won the consolation championship. “Kind of good and bad news, I guess,” said Coach Michael Jordan. The Bulldogs preceded the tournament with a 1-0 home loss Dec. 21 against El Camino. The Wildcats were outshot by a 10-5 margin but scored on a direct kick. Ramona tournament play began with two Dec. 27 games — a 3-0 loss to Carlsbad and a 1-1 tie with Mission Hills. Although Oceanside High School was the tournament organizer of what was once called the Nautical Cup, the games were played at Carlsbad High School. The loss to Carlsbad was thus on the Lancers’ home field while the draw against Mission Hills was at a neutral site. The Mission Hills match,

however, was the Grizzlies’ first of the day and the Bulldogs’ second. “That’s always tough,” Jordan said. Carlsbad has synthetic turf, which on a warm afternoon such as Dec. 27 can heat to beyond the air temperature. “On the artificial turf it’s always a little bit warmer,” Jordan said. Jordan started the season with a 22-player varsity roster, but injuries as well as players who missed the tournament due to the winter break left him with 14 players by the end of the tournament, including some called up from the junior varsity squad. The injuries included team captain Carlos Bustos, who pulled a hamstring in the second Dec. 27 game and missed the rest of the tournament. “Carlos is a vocal player,” Jordan said. “It’s tough not to have him on the field for his play and what else he offers, too.” Bustos’ injury allowed the Maruna brothers to play on the same defen-

sive line for the first time. Freshman Aiden Maruna came from the junior varsity and joined senior Connor Maruna as an outside defender. Jose Valencia, who is normally an outside defender since Bustos is the Bulldogs’ center defender, took over the center defender position. Mission Hills scored its goal in the first half, while Ramona had only one shot. “I told the guys that’s not going to get it done,” Jordan said of his halftime speech. The Bulldogs took five shots in the second half, including Sebastian Bueno’s goal, which included an assist from Adam Dolan. “The second half was a complete game of soccer with our possession style and playing much better defense,” he said. “It was absolutely a total team effort.” That included the junior varsity players who showed their ability to play on the varsity level if needed.

“It says something about the JV guys that they’re there,” Jordan said. Because Mission Hills lost to Carlsbad by a closer margin, the Grizzlies earned second-place pool status and Ramona was the third-place team in the three-school pool. The four third-place teams played consolation semifinal matches Dec. 28. Ramona’s semifinal match was a 2-1 win over

TimeOut

g ket. Several other teams are getting in the race. There is no winner in that race. Ever notice that the really great teams and franchises hardly ever change uniforms or make only slight changes to them? One example that I will give is the New York Yankees. The last innovation that they made was when they were the first team to wear numbers on their uniforms. Since then they have worn just about the same uniforms every year. How many times have the Padres changed uniforms? Colors? Do the math.

West Hills. “Just dominated them up and down the field,” Jordan said. “Had many, many opportunities.” The Bulldogs scored first when Bueno played a corner kick to Andy Garcia, who placed the ball into the net. West Hills tied the game when Ramona was unable to clear a corner kick, and the halftime score was 1-1. In the second half Dolan passed to From page 23

The same is true with just about every sport on every level. Alabama, Penn State, USC, Notre Dame, the Forty-Niners, Packers, the Colts, the Celtics, the Bruins (NHL), the Dodgers and the Chargers. You get the idea. Those teams have made some changes over the decades but you can picture in your mind what they wear. What do the Yankees do on retro day? Sure, some good teams have changed uniforms. Styles change and that’s a good thing. Remember the basketball shorts that Magic and Bird wore?

Bueno, who scored the winning goal. That put Ramona into the Dec. 29 consolation finals against La Jolla Country Day. The 2-0 win saw Ramona score once in each half. Jesse Bonilla recorded the shutout. “He played great,” Jordan said of Bonilla. Valencia, Connor Maruna and Ali Aparicio were the starting defenders who also contributed to the shutout. “Our defensive line did great,” Jordan said. The first-half goal was scored by Carlos Blanco in conjunction with Dolan’s assist. Early in the second half, Dolan dribbled between defenders before placing a left-footed shot into the net. In addition to giving Ramona the consolation championship, the win over La Jolla Country Day gave Ramona a 6-42 record for the Calendar Year 2011 portion of the season. The Bulldogs’ final pre-league game of the season will take place Friday afternoon, Jan. 6, at Kearny High School.
